Update on Lana
« Reply #-1 on: July 16, 2013, 07:21:57 AM »
My wife had a stroke seven weeks ago and is continuing to make slow but steady progress. Her speech is much better and she has regained much of the use of her left hand. She has gone from a wheelchair to a quad cane and not to a regular single cane and is walking fairly well. She finished up her outpatient rehab at Lakeshore Hospital last Friday and will continue to do exercises at home for several more months. They are still hopeful she will have no long term damage from the stroke. We both appreciate all the prayers and well wishes from you all.

That is wonderful news. With continued hard work on her part and the thoughts and prayers of everyone, she will be back to old form. And, probably, kicking your butt.
